Fully integrated estimating

Request for Quotes (RFQs) can be internally generated from a phone call or salesperson, or directly from the customer on the internet via the Avista eCustomer Link system. Estimates are generated for RFQs, and orders are then booked against estimates. Graphics, Design, Costing and Estimate creation are electronically passed though the defined departments with a configurable authorization procedure controlled by user accounts. This ensures that management chain approval is granted for each. Pricing and costing strategies are infinite and configurable in AXIOM.

For example, Customer A may have a strategy that is simply 15% over the estimated cost of production. Customer B might follow a much more complicated strategy using a surcharge for waste, a discount on paper consumed or a freight exemption. A pricing strategy can determine what revenue an order should generate. When confronted with a given or market price, the pricing strategy can return whether or not accepting a specific order is profitable.

AXIOM allows estimates to be created on a selling or manufacturing plant basis. For integrated plants, orders can be assigned a “selling” plant identification, while allowing for manufacturing to be done in a sister plant best suited to run the order. This allows a plant to retain the sales credit while still meeting the customer’s needs in a manner most effective and beneficial to the whole company.
